  This one has new info, though: Now Fermilab is back with its latest update, using two additional years of MiniBooNE data. The excess is still there, and it has edged even closer to the statistical standards for discovery. If you combine the Fermi and Los Alamos data, we're already there. It's looking more and more like another break in the Standard Model, and the possible explanations include an entirely new type of neutrino.

    Given the publication dates, those other articles are almost certainly also based on https://arxiv.org/abs/1805.12028 https://arxiv.org/abs/1805.12028, which incorporates those two additional years of data.
